What is real? How do you define “real”? Because for anyone paying even a slight modicum of attention, 2025 didn’t come anywhere close. More like 2025 got fired and replaced by AI.

In a world where we can’t seem to remember what we had for breakfast two days ago anywhere, where we’re drowning in a neverending sea of information that has now been flooded with a new type of ersatz on top of what was already so unbelievable and so unreal, I thought perhaps we could benefit from a documentarian’s eye on just what happened last year. The idea was to look at the disintegration of our already corrupt society in its present form but concurrently with the rise of the tech based upon when each clip or story was first posted. I bookmarked stuff throughout the year and took as much care as possible to try and look up each clip (even the TikToks) so the dates were correct by month for this (although I did rearrange them puzzle-like within the month so the connections would hopefully be more apparent).

I probably don’t have to tell you we just lived through a hell of a year. Truly, all the veils are down now. As Morpheus famously asked Neo in one of my favorite films of all time, ever: “What is real? How do you define ‘real’?” The veils are all the way down now.

Just a couple days ago, Elon Musk said “We have entered the Singularity”. I believe the film I just made illustrates that he is 100% correct. The singularity is a theoretical point where current models of human understanding break down leading to radical transformation… but, in alchemical terms, no renewal can happen without going through that stage (as ugly and painful as it is).

I just hit record on the fat bag of crazy being dumped on society right now and this is what came out.

Lately it feels like we’re tottering on a razor’s edge between the next dimension and the abyss, with a new psyop practically every other day to keep us all fighting amongst ourselves, good and distracted from seeing anything for what it really is. I’ve thought for a long time that everything seems so psychological, but that description doesn’t really encompass the depths of what is happening here.

Because this is spiritual. This whole protracted period could rightfully be described as spiritual warfare. So that’s what I’ve decided to talk about.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen to my thoughts by the way. I hope they help you. I hope we help each other.

We’ve been warning about this system for over a decade and now we are seeing the attempt to implement it.

Digital ID is the foundation for a cage unlike anything humanity has never known. Once we go in, we won’t come back out.

I made this hour-long video on all the reasons why we MUST reject this Orwellian nightmare and I hope you will share it far and wide so people can understand why we must reject this now, while we still can.

 

First: The answer is yes, I fully admit I talked Aaron into participating in another one of my wacky ideas.

Second: We worked with the same small American business owner who helped @CanaryCryRadio make a special coffee to support their podcast to bring you a protest coffee to go along with the theme of “Liminality” and help support our upcoming film. Proceeds go toward producing the movie by bartering coffee to keep the production team ( which is us) caffeinated, but this coffee also serves a dual purpose as well.

Just over 250 years ago, the crown attempted to tell the colonists what tea they had no choice but to drink by giving the East India Tea Co. a monopoly via The Tea Act — attempting to force the American colonists to exclusively buy and drink East India tea. In protest, the women in the colonies started a boycott of tea, knocking doors and getting other women to sign pledges promising their households would agree to buy and drink coffee instead. The tea boycott obviously culminated in the famous (or infamous, if you happen to be part of the British hereditary monarchy system hellbent on owning the colonists to the point of telling them what they were allowed to buy and drink as “loyal obedient subjects”) Tea Party. Coffee ultimately became the American drink of choice over tea, and the rest, as they say, is American Revolutionary history.

We thought if people were drinking protest/boycott coffee in the 250th anniversary window of this nation’s founding when the colonists would have also been drinking it, it would mean the right thing (especially right now) and who knows, maybe lend us a little 1776 energy around here… God knows we could really use it.

The wise Catherine Austin Fitts (@solari_the) once told us the currency of the future would be relationships built upon real trust. If we want to live in a better society (and a better world for that matter), we have to start trying to actually make this place better. We felt like working with a small American business to try and support the film (since we have to get this film supported and coffee fuels Aaron’s writing and my edits) while doing something that actually means the right thing on all the levels we could think of is a step in the right direction.

And we have tried this coffee. We’re kinda snobby about coffee sometimes, but this is actually really good coffee. I designed all the labels based on actual engravings of the tea party, and we made this commercial ourselves.

This right here, by the way, is why we’re making this film. It’s time people remember where we are before America disappears forever.

I guess from my last vid you already knew that this video was forthcoming as soon as I could finish editing it. This is admittedly a 30-min rant, but I believe it’s packed with all the reasons why what we’re seeing unfold in DC is not only unprecedented, but a dark portend for America’s future. Mass civil unrest is obviously coming in the not-too-distant future or they wouldn’t be gearing up for it so damn hard.

None of the excuses I’m seeing even remotely begin to make this “okay”. What is happening isn’t okay at all, but it’s definitely being normalized at breakneck speed. This is some praetorian guard under the Roman Empire level stuff going on.

Or a return to a king. People want a king so bad? Maybe they’ll get their wish and then they will finally remember why having a king was so bad in the first place.

History keeps repeating because people refuse to finally learn it already! It’s beyond sad to watch people lick the very boot Orwell warned us about.

This video isn’t about a website or a piece of paper. Now we’re supposed to believe a “coding error” just erased the exact parts of our Constitution from Congress’ official site for weeks that the president is busy doing end runs around right now and claiming he doesn’t know if he’s supposed to uphold it when directly asked on national TV.

If this isn’t a message, I don’t know what is.

“A Republic…if you can keep it.”

Habeas Corpus doesn’t just go back to the Bill of Rights and the 1679 Habeas Corpus Act in England, it goes back to the Magna Carta of 1215 and even earlier!

It’s time for everyone to remember what they’ve forgotten.

THE REPORT BEING DISCUSSED.

This is literal insanity.

Hundreds of billions in fraud. Trillions in unfunded social insurance obligations. Basing projections and budgets on unreliable books for at least 28 straight years on record. Zero accountability.

This is not a left-right issue. It’s Corruption issue. I’m exhausted because I stayed up all night editing this but I’m hoping it empowers my fellow Americans to see it all in black in white.

Here’s the latest video we made in response to not just what has been going on in the past two weeks, but what has been going on for decades now.

There is a set pattern here which was laid out in a letter written over 300 years ago detailing step-by-step what corrupt and wicked men in political power will do to destroy a country from within. After reading it, you can’t help but look around and recognize what’s happening here whether you want to see it or or not.

It’s so brazen and obvious, it’s as if the whole point is to get people to just accept it now.

Will you accept it?

Deep gratitude to Catherine Austin Fitts and The Solari Report for this honor.

We are humbled.

Via The Solari Report:

Dear Friend of Liberty,

They told us liberty was a finished story. That the battles were won, the rights secured, and the system stable. But what if that was never the full picture? Over the last six years, we followed a trail that led us across continents and centuries. What we uncovered wasn’t just a different version of history — it was a missing one. A story of forgotten principles, buried symbols, and the true roots of freedom that stretch far deeper than schoolbooks or modern soundbites ever reveal.

This isn’t nostalgia. It’s a warning. And it’s also a call.

Liminality is the result of that journey. A feature-length film from Truthstream Media that exposes what’s been hidden in plain sight and why it matters right now — at a time when rights are being quietly traded for convenience, and freedom is being reshaped in the image of control.

The world is changing fast. Rights are being chipped away in the name of safety. Governments increasingly serve corporate masters, while digital systems quietly tighten their grip on everyday life. All the while, we’re being told we’re still free.

But history reminds us that people have stood up before. They saw the signs. They pushed back. And they reclaimed what was theirs by natural right.

That’s what Liminality is about. It’s a story that was nearly lost, but urgently needs to be remembered. At this point we’ve carried this project as far as we possibly can on our own. Every mile traveled, every archive visited, every hour of footage — it’s been fueled by our own time, energy, and savings. We’ve done it because we believe what we found here really matters to humanity’s future going forward. Now, to bring it across the finish line, we need your help.

Finishing this film means filming a few more scenes, attempting two more interviews if we can get them, covering the final editing of what will essentially be two films that make a larger whole, licensing rare historical material, scoring the soundtrack, and finally, making it available to people everywhere who need to see it. There’s no studio behind us. No corporate sponsors. Just two independent researchers wearing all the hats who are committed to telling the truth as clearly and fully as we can.

If this message speaks to you — if you believe history still holds answers worth uncovering — we’re asking you to stand with us and be part of bringing this film to life.

If you believe liberty still matters…
If you believe history holds lessons we’re in danger of forgetting…
If you believe this story needs to be heard…

Then please support us finishing this film today. The Indiegogo campaign explaining the full project and offering DVD and USB preorders and donations to the cause is here:

And thank you so much for standing with us.

To Our fellow Americans and Friends of Liberty around the world,

History can show us where we are headed by where we have been. It is our deepest concern that Europe is in a ferment, and America is on the point of bursting into flames.

We have never more pressingly required the Patriot-senator, the wise and honest Counsellor, than the desolating conquerors now at the gates. Our absolute disdain of inadequate ministers and contemptible salary hunters has by no means impaired our sense of the dignity of a Free Human, or the importance of defending our Rights against the determined invasion of the most formidable powers on earth.

No one can divine what long now has been the condition of the creatures of those detestable corporate councils which have filled America, Great Britain, and the rest of the world with a high and universal discontent — Has almost unhinged our commercial and political and personal connections — Has annihilated the Constitutional legislature of this Realm and turned our Representative Houses into a paid guard — And endeavored by pitiful art and emissaries to effect what usurped and stretched authority dared not to pursue.

Can any of us now, at this late hour, wish to abandon our lives, properties, and minds to such rapine and plunder? To become traitors to that sacred Constitution which for ages has been the Citadel of our own safety? To walk off willingly to the end without a bang or even a whimper?

America was founded upon the concepts of English Liberty, the ancestral knowledge of which we inherited as descendants of descendants of Great Britain. This Liberty, which is actually universal in nature, is the heart and spirit of a much older, Ancient Constitution.

In seeking out the first principles of our American Bill of Rights, which we have diligently undertaken these past six years, it has been made clear this was not just an afterthought tacked on in the aftermath. It was, ultimately, the whole point — to transfer the germ of Liberty from Ancient Albion and transplant it anew, purified from the tyrannies that sought to utterly destroy it.

The film which we now endeavor to produce covers our grand tour across two continents, ten countries, more than a dozen interviews, and required us to go back two thousand years in deep research and heavy contemplation. But we are just two people, and as much as we hate asking anyone for help especially in these times (and have tried as hard as we can never to do so), we are going to ask for your help in bringing this film to life at this time when it is so desperately needed. This story does not belong to us alone. It belongs to all of Humanity.

We are once again being called upon to acknowledge fellow citizens for absolute sovereigns — that we may remind them by our shared history that our nations were founded upon inalienable Rights given to us by our Creator which may not be removed or revoked by pen or by code. They can only be willingly given up, which we have no intention of doing now, nor in whatever future is currently being built for us like a digital cage.

It has been nearly 250 years now since a bunch of royal subjects who were reduced to absolute despotism rebelled and redefined what government is and from whence it ultimately derives its legitimate authority. Those subjects-turned-revolutionaries transformed into Americans, and the spirit of Liberty rippled out and changed the world.

It is time once again to remind everyone that our Rights are inherent and ought to be recognized once again for what they are — the root of our common law heritage and image as Free Humans. Otherwise, we may be readily reduced to absolute despotism.

History may be cut into pieces, buried, and all but forgotten — but it has a way of being remembered and resurrected.

We must walk the past to reach the future.

Your humble Friends in Liberty,
Aaron & Melissa Dykes

Hey everyone!

Here is a first look teaser on our upcoming film “Liminality” (working title) which we consider to be our Magnum Opus. We’ve been working on it for six years now, and it’s taken us to two continents, ten countries, and countless events. We’ve interviewed over a dozen people, from authors to aristocrats. We’ve been digging through archives, deposit libraries, and societies to try and find all of the pieces of a long-forgotten puzzle — burned and buried history — that desperately need to be put back together before it’s too late.

We have to walk the past to get to the future. There is no other way.

More announcements coming soon.

In Love and Liberty,
Melissa and Aaron

This is admittedly a rant I fully admit I just couldn’t help…

because you can see where this is going…

in the dumpster… the one that’s on fire with a fire inside the dumpster.

It is 2025, and for all intents and purposes, our Congress is functionally illiterate.

P.S. — You might wonder why I even bothered making this video. Well, just in case you do, I am putting this video up so my head doesn’t explode and implode at the same time, possibly creating a black hole or at least one of those pesky vortex thingamajigs that you get sucked into and wake up on an even worse timeline that Netflix makes one of those trash bin aggressively mid movies about which people autoplay in the in the background to tune out of real reality almost completely while they’re on their phones or something.
